ASIMO - The Honda Humanoid Robot.

He worlds most advanced robot...
The robot, called Asimo, is the end product of 22 years of research by scientists all over the world, including a team at Edinburgh University.
He can walk, run, dance and even play football..

ASIMO is Honda Motor Company's renowned humanoid robot, created at Honda's Wako Fundamental Technical Research Center in Japan. This version is the current model in a line of eleven that began in 1986 with E0. Officially, the name is an acronym for "Advanced Step in Innovative MObility". Honda's official statements claim that the robot's name is not a reference to science fiction writer and inventor of the Three Laws of Robotics, Isaac Asimov. As of February 2009, there are over 100 ASIMO units in existence. Each one costs just under $1 million to manufacture.

@512coins There's no voice recognition though. /: It's all programmed.

coming to a boring repetitive job near you

One time cost, no health benefits, no lunch breaks, no need for time off or to rest, no unions, etc.

@TheQuindecillion so far asimo can just have moves (walk, run, jump etc...) and to do that it has to be programmed... it takes hours only to program its movements to cross one room. japansese invest so much in it because they expect to use it in hospital for nursery because in a future the populatin will be old.

To what degree is the robot's actions controlled by a human? It's not doing voice recognition, right? And what about the walking? is someone controlling that , too?

[TheQuindecillion]

That's a little frightening.
